Having dealt with PR agencies as a deputy features editor, Christopher Wood had reached the conclusion that nobody understood journalists - and the communication game - better than journalists themselves.
So he founded and developed his own consultancy based on this premise, bringing on board another experienced journalist who had also graduated from newspapers and magazines into PR - Chrissie van Emst.
Between them Wood and van Emst bring over 45 years of journalistic experience to their business, which began in 1997 with a strong bias towards tourism and the arts. Since then Newtown Communications has broadened its base and diversified into other areas of PR.
The Newtown Communications team prides itself on its people skills and collectively offers a full range of PR services, backed with the lean efficiency of a compact operation which carries no passengers.
